Eskifjordur

Iceland - East Iceland

Discover the charm of Eskifjörður and its surroundings, which offer a delightful taste of the eastern region’s allure.

Immerse yourself in the wonders of nature and history as you explore the towering mountains, nature reserves, deserted black beaches, and unique geology. The town is steeped in fishing and trading history, dating back to its official trading post in 1789. Experience this rich heritage by visiting the Maritime Museum and Randulfssjóhús, an old seafarers’ lodge that provides a glimpse into the fishermen’s quarters from as far back as 1890. The building has been cleverly converted into a restaurant serving delicious local seafood dishes and fascinating maritime exhibitions.
